This is the shot I
used for my front cover, I decided to use this as it is a medium-close-up shot
which exposes the clothing of the model. The clothing suggests that this is a
sixth-form student as the model doesn’t appear to be wearing any form of
uniform, the scarf especially highlights this fact as scarfs aren’t normally a
part of school uniform. Furthermore, the
colours are exposed due to this type of shot as it catches the colours of the
background and the models clothes. The model in this shot appears to be wearing
black which is vibrant and clear and goes well with the theme of sophistication
and elegance in this magazine it also hints a level of mystery making the
audience want to find out more about this magazine and read it. I have used a
white background instead of a natural background as this allows the readers to
focus on the main image rather than the background, the model in this case. The
model also appears to have a goldish hair which resembles that of the key in
‘key to success’ suggesting that he has the key to success which makes him a
symbol of guidance in this magazine which makes the model appropriate for the
target audience and a school magazine. Finally, the smile on the model conveys
positivity which links well with the overall theme of success. The model also
appears to have an angle of gaze which draws the readers to the magazine,
overall I chose this picture as it is suitable and appropriate for the target
audience and it is a photo that you would normally find on school magazine.
I chose this picture to be on my contents page as the
background is very bright which links well them theme of success as it suggests
that the future is bright. Also, it is appropriate for a school magazine as the
model appears to be wearing a bag and holding a book. Also I like the fact that
the trees are depicted as obstacles in this picture which can be overcome by
the book the model appears to be holding, which encourages students to study.
I chose this picture for my contents page as it is highly
suitable for a school magazine as it is a student in a school environment which
allows the readers to engage with the picture as they may relate to this image.
The low shot was established as it allows the reader to see the environment of
the study room and the models expressions as well as books and bags.
I chose this medium shot for my
contents page as the lighting on the model is good which makes the photo clear
and bright therefore, it is easier to see the angle of gaze of the model. Also,
this image is related to the headline ‘yaw makes it big’ therefore a white
background was chosen so the reader can focus on the model yaw. This picture
portrays yaw’s spotlight therefore it used it for my contents page which is one
of the main articles in the magazine.
I used this picture for my contents
page as I liked the lighting in this picture as there is little lighting on
some parts of his face which creates darkness that evokes a sense of the
mystery which links with the models interview, also there isn’t much darkness
so the reader can clearly see the image. Lastly the person on the right is present which gives the reader a feeling somebody is there, this goes well
with the theme of guidance as there is someone watching over the student.
